...Bowdoin backs. The most noticeable feature of Harvard's work was the looseness of the play, and the poor fashion in which the team was run. The men were at times badly confused in the signals. Brown and Maguire erred most often in this respect. The weakest part of the line seemed to be between right tackle and guard.

He ran well with the ball and did the greater part of the tackling. Dibblee continued...

Doucette injured his knee, Wheeler sustained a compound fracture of the nose, while Cochrance and Sullivan were both laid off with turned ankles. Their places were taken by Burden, Swain, Maguire and Cozzens. Burden did fairly well although his poor snapping...
